  Slipperly slope warning: 

  Then
	| x y z|
	^#(x y z)
  should be equivalent to:
	| x y z|
	^Array with: x with: y with: z

  In which case you don't have an array literal at all, you have a
  dynamic array constructor.

Good point. These ramblings about array "literals" should be appended
with "plus or minus the  vs. multiple copy issue".
